(Cutting Grown)
 
I’ve been chasing Hypocalymma robustum (Swan River Myrtle) for years, and finally have enough to share. Fine, heath-like foliage that disappears under a haze of soft pink blooms—more cloud than plant when it’s in go-mode. Classic West Aussie energy: delicate look but tougher than it lets on. Definitely a PITA from seed (ask me how I know), but much easier from cuttings (phew). It’s a proper show-off in the garden.
